Well, I have a couple of things to say on that, but I'll be polite and say
a couple of other things instead.

(1). Buy a book on C/C++. Personally, I like Herbert Schildt, and thew
O'Reilly 'Chipmunk Book' (Practyical C++ Programming)

(2). Read the info files that come with djgpp. There are a LOT of them.

(3). Do a search online. I'm sure that if YOU make some effort, you'll find
something.

(4). There is a C/C++ tutorial CD you can buy (Detweiller & Detweiller?).
It has full multimedia, and such.

In short, if you want stuff, it is (as far as I'm concerned, anyway)
offensive to come online and say "Gimme! Gimme!", when you could just take
minimal effort and locate it yourself.

Two days ago, I decided to look for a 'tiny' C/C++ compiler (something that
would work in a 4Meg laptop), and I found djgpp - all by myself! In one
evening! 

Sorry for the rant, but I have been online for a long time, and really get
tired of people who aren't willing to think for themselves.
